Cell voltage model for Li-Bi liquid metal batteries
Norbert Weber, Carolina Duczek, Gerrit M. Horstmann +5
Lithium-bismuth bimetallic cells are amongst the best explored liquid metal batteries. A simple and fast quasi-one-dimensional cell voltage model for such devices is presented. The…
Anode-metal drop formation and detachment mechanisms in liquid metal batteries
Sabrina Bénard, Norbert Weber, Gerrit Maik Horstmann +2
We study numerically localised short circuits in Li||Bi liquid metal batteries. In the prototype of a classical, three liquid-layer system, we assume a perceptible local deformatio…
Conductivity influence on interfacial waves in liquid metal batteries and related two-layer systems
Tom Weier, Ilmars Grants, Gerrit Maik Horstmann +5
Fluid flows in liquid metal batteries can be generated by a number of effects. We start with a short overview of different driving mechanisms and then address questions specific to…
Measurement of interfacial wave dynamics in orbitally shaken cylindrical containers using ultrasound pulse-echo techniques
Gerrit Maik Horstmann, Markus Wylega, Tom Weier
We present a novel experiment on interfacial wave dynamics in orbitally shaken cylindrical vessels containing two- and three fluid layers. The experiment was designed as a hydrodyn…
Coupling and stability of interfacial waves in liquid metal batteries
Gerrit Maik Horstmann, Norbert Weber, Tom Weier
We investigate the interfacial wave coupling dynamics in liquid metal batteries and their effects to the battery's operation safety. Similar to aluminum reduction cells, liquid met…
